A yellowish tint and woody aromas include a note of baked apple. A somewhat full-bodied palate is endowed with a resiny texture, while this tastes of woody dried apple and papaya. Round and persisten…

Superripe in blackberry, red plum, cherry, mocha, fig and caramel flavors, this wine certainly scores high on the deliciousness factor. It could use greater structural depth and complexity but is goo…

Ripe and crisp in acidity, this 100% Pinot Gris comes from a single vineyard in this highly regarded Santa Barbara County appellation. The wine never saw oak, so the pineapple, apple butter, mango an…

Black plum, prune and vanilla show on the slightly metallic nose of this bottling. There is decent richness to the sip, with gingerbread spice and black-cherry flavors.

Nicely made in a cool-climate style, this medium-bodied Shiraz offers hints of pepper and clove alongside crisp, sour plum fruit. Charming spice shadings line the long, mouthwatering finish.

A bit on the brawny side of Pinot Noir, with jagged tannins and plenty of full-bodied cherry fruit. Not a bad wine, but lacking the delicacy of the 2008 and 2009 vintages.

Lots of enjoyable cherry, currant, licorice and sandalwood flavors in this dry, crisp Pinot Noir. Firm tannins give it some toughness, but it doesn't seem to be an ager, so drink over the next 3–4 ye…

Grown along the Bay Area's Peninsula near the heart of Silicon Valley, this wine is brisk and energetic, with raspberry, pomegranate, dried ginger, sage, rose petals and lavender on the nose. Earthin…

Funky, with mushroom and sweaty leather aromas that can best be described as Burgundian. But it's richly sweet in raspberries and cherries, and the smoky oak is nicely integrated with the fruit. A pl…

Santa Rosalia is the quintessential pizza wine with bright fruit integrity and a touch of piquant spice on the close. The wine is fresh, firm and keeps the palate clean.

Superrich and ripe, flooding the mouth with jammy flavors of raspberries, cherries, anise and pepper. A soft, rather simple wine whose lack of complexity is compensated by sheer deliciousness.

A good, polished Pinot for drinking now. It's brisk in acidity and has a hint of green mint, but the raspberry, cherry and cedar flavors are delicious.

This Sangiovese-Canaiolo blend has loads of sweet spice on the nose. There's so much spice, in fact, it's not easy to locate its natural core of red fruit. The mouthfeel is great with lingering tones…
